Ben & Tom Waters will bring their electrifying father-and-son show to theatres across the UK, together with special guest, percussionist James Larter. This is music played the way it should be: live, dangerous, joyful and full of heart.

Ben Waters is internationally known as one of the UK’s most explosive boogie-woogie and rock ’n’ roll pianists — a performer whose high-energy style has taken him around the world and onto stages with some of the biggest names in music.

Tom Waters is a Royal Academy of Music graduate and a formidable saxophonist whose sound spans blues, soul, funk and rhythm & blues. From the raw power of Big Jay McNeely to the groove of Maceo Parker and the sophistication of David Sanborn, Tom brings fire, authority and huge musicality to every performance.

Between them they have played and shared stages with The Rolling Stones, Jeff Beck, Ray Davies, Rod Stewart, Mick Hucknall, Dave Stewart, Johnny Depp and many more.

Joining them is award-winning percussionist, drummer and multi-instrumentalist, James Larter – one of the UK’s most exciting rhythmic voices who has recorded with artists such as Sampha and Gang of Youths as well as leading orchestras including the London Philharmonic Orchester and the English National Opera. James has worked with legendary producers Tony Visconti, Dave Okumu and Chris Kimsey.

This UK theatre tour brings their explosive combination of boogie-woogie piano, powerhouse saxophone and driving percussion to audiences across the country for a night of music that lifts the roof and warms the room at the same time.

EXPECT • Thundering boogie-woogie piano • Blistering, soul-drenched saxophone • Driving drums and percussion • Blues swagger • Funk grooves • Rock ’n’ roll mayhem • Big laughs • Big heart

It’s a show that leaves audiences buzzing long after the final note.
